The material covers the core quantitative methods subject matter that is used in advanced electives in Quantitative Methods (QTM) and is prerequisite to Babson's integrated core business offerings. Students are introduced to the applications and mathematical models that use linear optimization, differential calculus, integral calculus, differential equations, and infinite series. Technology and the use of spreadsheets are integrated throughout, so that students learn the effective use of computer software as a problem solving tool and decision-making aide. Pre-req: AP Calculus or QTM1300 (Students who took AP Calculus, but did not score a 4 or 5 on the AP Exam, may take this course before QTM2420/QTM2421 to earn calculus credit.)

Derivatives and integrals of elementary algebraic, exponential, and logarithmic functions. Maxima, minima, rate of change, motion, work, area under a curve, and volume. Prerequisite: C or better in MATH 111, MATH 111i or MATH 115 or placement through Algebra version of the Mathematics Placement Test. FS: 11/02/2016. CL: 2020.
